NT Domains does not support groups in groups. Note: There is a difference between Domain groups and local groups. Local groups only exists on the domain controllers, not in the domain as such. Local groups may have domain groups as members. > Also, I cannot get the wb_group helper to work from the CL, no > matter what combination; > domain\user group, domain\\user group, domain\user "group", tried > upper/lower case > I am thinking that it has something to do with this from the FAQ: > http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-23.html#ss23.5 : > Squid-2.5.STABLE2 will support Samba-2.2.6 to Samba-2.2.7a and > hopefully later > Samba versions.

It is not released yet.

I'd recommend first trying a snapshot release of Squid-2.5, or wait for 2.5.STABLE2. (the current 2.5 snapshots are currently regarded as 2.5.STABLE2 release candidates). Regards Henrik
